American Pillar Rose 
Corot Outrivalled 
What would Corot have given to achieve on 
canvas one of the masterpieces of color which 
you can effect with the ready assistance of 
Dame Nature. To be explicit, we refer to 
the art of Rose Culture, that fascinating 
hobby which appeals to all lovers of the 
beauties of Nature. The time’s ripe now for 
the planning of your summer rose attractions. 
Let C. & J. Roses come to your assistance, 
with their almost endless varieties of form 
and color. We commend especially to your 
attention the 
American Pillar Rose 
— the most popular single hardy climber in existence; 
introduced by The Conard & Jones Company. Rich, 
rosy pink flowers of exquisite tints. Such an abundance 
of blossoms as to almost hide the dark green foliage. 
It will shoot out thick canes 20 feet long in one sea- 
son, or, if desired, it can be kept in bush form for lawn 
purposes. One of our delighted customers writes: “The 
American Pillar is the grandest of all my 200 varieties. 
A novelty indeed, over 500 buds to-day.” Another 
writes us: “My American Pillar Rose seems to escape 
the blights and bug pests to which so many roses (ramblers especially) 
are prone.” Still another writes: “My American Pillar is now one 
mass of red berries.” Prices as follows: 
1 yr. 20c. postpaid; 2 yr. 50c.; Extra 2 yr. 75c.; Star size #1 by express.
